Not particularly worried. I do believe this phoenix will rise from the ashes. My question will be how high will it fly. My cost basis is 0.01 so I will need $3 to break even after the split. Ah well, we'll see.
Doesn't look like the R/S today. When I log on to Scottrade they always list the stocks that had GTC orders cancelled due to R/S. There are two listed for today but not EVSA.
I don't think you quite understand the situation.
1.) By now it should be abundantly clear that no one is interested in your posts, your rep (?), or your opinion of anyone or anything.
2.) From what I've seen the people on this board (other than myself) have been extremely patient with you.
3.) When people speak of TOS'd they are not talking about deleting a post. It means a Terms of Service violation and can result in being banned from the board.
4.) The person that you are taunting in your post, Reddog, happens to be the one with the authority to have you banned.
5.) Your opinion of whether that is "unethical" or "manipulative" is also immaterial (see 1.)
The impression that I get from his ranting is that he is someone that got into penny and pink sheets to make a bunch of money. As is usually the case, he got burnt. Finally, he is getting wise to what these markets are like and wants to get his money back. Yeah right.
The following is primarily for certsarereal, others might find it boring or useful:
It is possible to make good money here but you've got to play by market rules. Some I've learned, the hard way, are:
1. Most companies in penny/pink land are scams. Which means the word "investment" doesn't exist. Trade - yes.
2. The market rules and MM's are against the small guy so I don't try to fight them. Never fight the market. If MM's are gonna manipulate, then learn the behavior of the different MM's. They do have individual styles and knowing them can give you an edge.
3. Message boards relating to indivudual stocks can cost me money. This is true if I get caught up in the rah rah mentality and hold when I should have sold.
4. Most individuals in these stocks follow the herd mentality. This is why you will often see panic buying and panic selling. Knowing this can useful in making a few bucks if I don't follow the lemmings off the cliff.
5. If I don't follow a regimented trading system; if I trade following "gut" feelings, hunches, or hope, I'll get my clock cleaned. This is particularly true when it comes to selling.
6. I don't believe anything I hear from the company and only a portion of what is PR'd until or unless the company has an established track record for honesty. (See 1 above)
7. I've had to learn some real discipline in the area of selling. I've ridden too many of these things down in flames. I've lost good profits by not selling into strength and I've lost precious capital by staying in a stock hoping for a reversal or bounce. Now I'm better but could still use some work.
8. Certsarereal will never be succesful as a trader unless he learns to control his emotions. Trading is a business, shit happens, there will be losses. Get over it. By cutting my losses I can have the profit from one good trade exceed the losses from a half dozen or more. By my standards, one good trade for six bad ones is a dang good ratio so long as my losses are small in the other six.
My apologies to the rest of the board for such a long post.

What a relief!
Our village has been missing its idiot now for several days. Glad to find him here and in top form. Is it alright if he plays here for a little while longer while we repad his room??
I agree. If it weren't for the fact that he was taking the same bath as us, I probably would have bailed much earlier. I stuck around to see if this dark cloud has a silver lining.
I don't expect it will be too much longer before we know.
Of course Brian's cost basis is probably not the same as it is for most of us. That might have an influence on how "good" the deal is.
So the MM's start the day with a little shake. Yaawwn! What else is new?
Nope - no mailing or notification through Scottrade - that's why I was wondering.
So now the R/S or will that occur later?
"When any signal system is followed by too many people is becomes useless because the majority is always wrong."
I would agree with this except from what I can see, most of the people in penny stocks have NO SYSTEM. They just follow the pack and are usually a day late and a dollar short.
I was originally thinking that ALRY could go to a quarter. However, with the addition of this new reservoir I may have to expand my expectations upward a bit. Shucky darn!
They were lucky to get it capped. A lot of time small rigs are a bit deficient in things like blowout preventers.
Tough question. It rather depends on how much they are willing to break/bend the law.
Strictly from my point of view you can post any opinion you wish. What I do object to is someone telling me how to trade!
Just what makes you the guru to tell us to buy or sell?? Get out indeed. I would gladly support that any such posts by you or anyone else be deleted with that kind of content.
Isn't that usually the case with NITE? -e
I'm one of those guys that bought at 0.0039. Still have them and plan to keep them to see what next card is.
Oh that third type. Those I usually ignore since every board has those that want to convince me to do something that I wouldn't ordinarily consider as sane.
Isn't this thread kind of pointless. There are two kinds of people here ... those that are in...and those that aren't. For those of us in... it would, IMO, be silly to sell now and buyback after the name/cusip change.
That leaves those that aren't in. For them I suspect that not too many of us care what they do or don't do, at least I don't. They have to decide for themselves to get in and when. There is no right answer to those questions that can be obtained on a message board. Those that think so better have deep pockets.
Perhaps the limited exposure and late release was to prevent panic buying.
Once again a last minute HOD to close green - same as yesterday.....hmmm.
I'm leary of too fast a climb - too often crashes quick too.
Is a simple change of a cusip enough to get rid of the shorts??
It seems too pat - why isn't it done more often?
Makes you wish the market was open tomorrow - LOL
I've a question - if one can force shorts to cover by just changing the cusip - why don't more companies do just that??
OT: Loniee, I believe I have lakefront property on that lake and he's trespassing!!
That might be a bit of a battle. I've heard that 0.06 is the trigger for a short squeeze and they won't go there willingly.
You didn't use that corny old line of "This spuds for you" did you????
Pretty low volume for the day.
I guess everyone is in a wait and see mode.
I don't know where it came from but nice finish today. 0.052 GREEN
I thought it took affect 20 days after shareholders notified.
The problem is that there are also very few buyers ... which is bad.
When I looked at the chart this a.m. it looked encouraging but without some volume we are going nowhere fast IMO.
Looks like PMCL is getting dragged down all out of proportion to the posted trades IMO.
MM aren't wasting anytime in playing games IMO. Dragging it down on small piddlin trades.
Please correct. We hate short trading weeks, not short work weeks. LOL
Turbo-twit is now on ignore.
When I was really really new I heard of the signals. I tried watching very carefully after each one for confirmation and never saw it.
Besides if you read them carefully they don't make a lot of sense. For example, "I need shares" - OK so what? What is the expected action? Or "I need shares but don't bring it down" - so what's someone supposed to do?
If they are signals they are very simplistic and they've been around a looong time without changing too.
Question Coy,
PMCL was brought down one hell of a long way. I would think that the short trigger would be considerably higher as in around when they first started to short it.
What am I missing?
Ya'll figure the short trigger is set at 0.06? -e
